I am so excited about today’s project! It may be one of my favorites of all time! The name of this stamp from Stampin’ Up! just says it all… Perfect Peacock! I am in love with how elegant this gorgeous peacock turned out… and you won’t believe how easy it was to achieve.

This card looks like it would take hours to color, but it is actually a trick achieved with a cool watercoloring technique and some minimal coloring. I’ve created this video tutorial to show you just how this is done.

Although this technique requires a few steps with some drying time in between. It is actually really simple and people will be oh so impressed by you artistic prowess! I hope you will give it a try!
